I really needed to read this today. I finished reading a novel which, in many parts, touches on the material I plan on tackling within my next novel. That which I read is well/kindly regarded whereas I know my approach will be challenging and disturbing the comfortable. For a brief moment I considered abandoning my project, but then reacted in anger and started sorting out notes and material for detailing outline. I also had to face the reality that I enjoy shuffling paper!
